Edith was born on March 1, 1925 in Greensboro to the late William Arthur Kendrick and Mary Pearman Kendrick and was a faithful member of Bethel Baptist Church. She worked for Cone Mills in the weaving area for many years before she became a grandmother and a stay at home wife. She was a giving mother, loved her family, her church, and was full of spunk! In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, James Wesley Andrews; son, James Harold Andrews; brothers, Lender Kendrick, Curtis Kendrick, James P. Kendrick and William A. Kendrick, Jr.
Those left to cherish her memory include her 5 children, Lois Flinchum (Bud), Alice Keeton (LeRoy), Herman Andrews (Linda), Harvey Andrews (Joan) and Danny Andrews (Mary) and a very special grandson, Jeff Flinchum (Kim); 13 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; and 6 great great-grandchildren.
